Port Charles is bracing for a Monday full of revelations and rising stakes when General Hospital airs the September 29 episode.

From Nina’s astonishing news to Tracy’s cold confrontation and Alexis’s unexpected peril, no one will get through the day unchanged.

Nina Drops the Truth No One Saw Coming

Nina Reeves has been carrying a heavy burden, but this episode she finally lets the shocker fly.

She summons Liesl Obrecht to the hospital, hinting that the news is serious — but it’s not about Liesl’s daughter or Maxie. Britt shows up, annoyed and curious, since it’s her first day back at the ER and she’s not here for surprises.

The secret? Nathan West is alive. Nina reveals this to both Britt and Liesl in a moment loaded with disbelief and urgency. No one warned them: Nathan’s return reshapes everything for folks like Willow and Liesl, but also threatens to unsettle relationships built around the belief that he was gone.

Tracy Meets Veronica — and the Crypt Secrets Percolate

Meanwhile, Tracy Quartermaine’s sharp instincts kick in. She gives Veronica Bard (played by Erika Slezak) an unwelcoming cold shoulder after discovering her lurking in the Quartermaine crypt. “Why are you here now?” becomes a loaded question, especially since Monica never spoke of Veronica before. Veronica’s timing isn’t random — people start whispering that her presence may upend hidden family stories or connections.

Alexis in Unexpected Danger

Alexis Davis finds herself in more trouble than she expected. Spoilers hint danger may come through Ric Lansing—or through someone else who resents what Alexis knows or stands for.

Whether it’s a threat to her safety or a legal vulnerability, Alexis is forced off the defensive. The environment around her feels darker, and trust seems overdue.

Other Threads Heating Up

• Anna Devane gets her hands on fresh evidence related to Drew Cain’s shooting, possibly turning the investigation in a new direction.

• Michael Corinthos scrambles to shore up his alibi. With so many narrative pieces moving, a weak story or hole in logic could cost him dearly.

• Willow has a meaningful moment meeting Nathan — her uncle she believed was lost. Their meeting promises tension, confusion, and possibly bitterness.

Why This Episode Matters

This isn’t just about one bombshell; it’s about the ripple effects that follow. When Nina reveals Nathan’s survival, every character who built part of their life around his absence has to reconsider. Tracy’s discovery in the crypt suggests secrets are closer to the surface than ever. Alexis being in danger means the stakes go beyond grief — now people might risk harm or betrayal.

By day’s end, Port Charles could look very different: alliances tested, truths exposed, and people forced into choices they didn’t want to make.
